Default 66' chevelle going twin turbo ls3, have questions

i am in the process of buying parts to do the swap from my pavement pounding 283 (98 rwhp) lol, to a twin turbo ls3. i will also be doing a full suspension swap out along with willwood big brakes front and rear.
questions:
anyone here know what engine mounts to use? and where to get them for that motor?
also, has anyone used a good rac and pinion on there 66' chevelle?
if so please post a link for me! thanks in advance!!

Nice looking 66'! Rather than type a long drawn out post I just suggest you search for my thread called "engine mount issues" as well as search for some other A-body threads. If you haven't done so already that is.

When you do I would be interested in taking the 18's off your hands. They would look great on my cutlass
